About the Project

As you know, you will be broken into groups to research poets, and find representative works by them. As we are doing this, we will study poetry that we choose to look at in class. Sometimes the poems will be of my choice, and other times, I will ask you to find poems to bring in to class. You will be given some terminology that you will be asked to master in order to talk about and write about poetry. You will also be asked to memorize and recite poetry for your classmates. The culminating piece of this work will be a "music video" that you produce that uses poetry you have chosen as lyric.
